Chapter 473 Privacy

There's no need to save face for the newly formed Department of Homeland Security, especially the guy named Spike.

Businessmen rarely deal with these people, and Su Mu's status as the richest man in the world is not cheap enough that even an official of this level can bully him casually.

After more than 10 years of serious operation, many wealthy people directly or indirectly hold the shares of his company, and it is a big deal when it comes to money, which is equivalent to forming a relationship of interest binding with them, and they think that they have a bit of status.

Qian Huhlberg feared that a second Hoover would be born with the advent of the Homeland Security Agency, and he did have reason to be worried.

The "Hoover" mentioned here is not the US President Hoover who built the Hoover Dam, but the Mr. Edgar Hoover, who single-handedly created the FBI and successfully occupied the position of director for 48 years.

He is one of the most legendary figures in the United States, in the forty-eight years he served as FBI director, a total of eight presidents, sixteen attorneys general, but the director of the FBI, always named J. Edgar Hoover, he holds countless secrets, and is good at keeping secrets, unless someone targets him, people do not know what secrets he knows, which makes no president dare to let him go.

Su Mu reassured on the phone: "Take it easy, buddy, it's not decades ago, it's because of Hoover's example, it's almost impossible to give birth to a second place, the authority of the Homeland Security Agency is very high, yes, but you should think about who gave them such high power, you are willing to be monitored by them all the time?"

I think it's a good opportunity to take a stand and most likely not just reach out to our company, but set a good example before other Silicon Valley companies give in to DHS. ”

"Me?"

Herberg's fortune process was too smooth, and so did Su Mu, so that he thought that he didn't have many tricks to be caught by the other party, which is why Su Mu could be tough, as a law-abiding and excellent American citizen, why should he be afraid of fools who are raised by his own tax money?

Su Mu said it clearly enough, Herberg understood what he meant, and without waiting for Su Mu to speak, he added: "Okay, I know what you mean, make the movement bigger or smaller?"

"Of course it's bigger, bigger the better!"

......

There are always people in the United States who say that Su Mu is a pervert, and he can't refute it, because this sentence can be regarded as a compliment.

Accustomed to smooth sailing, coupled with the entrepreneurial process is too smooth, almost never suffered much, just before the "hungry wolves" reacted, he has become a rich man, the Internet industry did not form a solidified class, a group of small fish compete for predation, after entering the 21st century, the opportunities are relatively few, but it is still easy to appear rich industry.

If the company is small and is targeted, you can comfort yourself that people are under the eaves and have to bow your head, but Su Mu is rich and has a good reputation in the United States, and suddenly jumped out of an unruly guy who wants to step on Su Mu to get on the throne, this tone ...... He couldn't take it anymore.

The reason why I worked hard to make money and maintain a good image in front of people back then was not to let myself no longer be humiliated and live freely and comfortably?

Qian Helberg, the executive officer of Galaxy Group, soon called a group of company executives to give advice after ending his conversation with Su Mu, and when he heard this seemingly normal but strange news, many people were stunned on the spot, wondering that there were still people who dared to go against their boss in these years?

At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, all users who are using the Bee chat software will receive a push message, and those who have not logged in will also receive this push as soon as they go online.

Titled "We made a very difficult decision", Bee users are so large that even if they don't chat with others, they will habitually stay logged in, for fear of missing messages from others, and logging in often affects their account level, high levels can get special permissions, and even get benefits in the associated Maple Leaf Shopping Network, OO Browser, and games produced by Snail Entertainment.

At this moment, when the sound of news sounded, countless users across the United States clicked on it, and it was rare to receive news that had nothing to do with new products and holiday wishes, plus the title was mysterious enough, and it instantly gained a very high number of readers.

The content is all the same, it says:

"Just today, someone from the Department of Homeland Security came to the door again, and they ordered the Bee program to have the background open to them or face unknown risks.

We thought about it for a long time, but still firmly refused, opening up the database, which will mean that all user conversations, activities, hobbies, etc., will be exposed to the supervision of the official department, as an American company, we have a responsibility to protect user privacy, which is a right granted by the Constitution. It is very likely that this official body, which is supposed to be for the sake of the American people, will retaliate further against our company, and the risk of a decline in the stock price in the near future cannot be ruled out, and the owners of the Bee Group are doing everything they can to block the DHS's approach, and the future is unknown......

This is the beginning of the push article, and it took a long time for several professionals to decide on the article that will finally be presented to the users.

Since Su Mu wanted to make a big deal out of it, Herberg was not vague at all, and almost directly criticized the DHS's approach, in fact, they did consider doing so at first, and after discussing it, they thought that putting the company in a vulnerable position would arouse more sympathy from users, so this article was born.

Su Mu has a bit of a handle that may be caught by others, such as a large amount of unpaid funds overseas, such as some unsightly "reciprocity" behaviors with the top officials in the United States, etc., which may be used to attack him, but it is the Bee company, which should be quite safe, and the tax that should be paid is not less than even a penny.

In any case, strangle the other party's back road first, so that even if it is retaliated against at that time, it can confirm the viciousness of this new department.

Su Mu immediately retweeted the tweet with the text: "People have not recovered from the disaster, but this disaster has become an excuse used by some people to spy on the privacy of the American people, which makes me feel disgusted, the United States should not be like this." I just learned that a senior official of the Department of Homeland Security named Spike actually threatened the CEO of my company to open the user data server under the pretext of fighting criminals, are we all criminals in his eyes?"

Instantly caused a sensation, some Bee chat software users, almost angry, speaking of the importance of privacy, Americans far more than other residents of other countries, this is simply poking their hearts in the most sensitive place......
